does is block out ALL sunlight from the room?

It is going to show light through it but it is heavily diffused. I put this up to block sunrays that come in at an odd angle blinding us. Now my hall window still provides nice soft light but is a fraction of the brightness and keeps temps down.

It's heavy paper so it blocks out direct sun, however, it does let defused light in. It is not a blackout shade. One of the reasons I got it is I have plants that can not take direct sun, they'll burn, but they do need light, this shade is perfect.

Hi Cindy and thank you for your question. The Redi Arch is a light filtering fabric shade. It softly filters light while creating privacy and reducing glare. It does not block out all sunlight from the room. Thank you for your interest in Redi Shade.

People can see through this. It's designed to minimize sun light so it is transparent. I'm sure at night time it helps, but any light will help to see through it.

No, it has option to have it be low or high brightness. I use it in my toddlers room on low. I do have it plugged in behind a glider to block some light though.

It's some kind of thick, strong synthetic fabric. Since it creates shade, i would think it blocks UV but I don't really know. Light does come through it, just softer and more muted.

I feel it dulls the sun. Like I said, light is still filtered through. It isn't harsh light, but it doesn't block out the sun.I may sound silly saying this, but take a dryer sheet or two and hold it up to the sunlight that you're hoping it dulls. I will most likely have that effect if you buy this. I have 2 of these up around my bed since I am sharing a room. I can say that I am not woken up by hard sunlight like I was before I got these.

No. They will block direct sunlight, but not all of the light. You probably want black out blinds for complete darkness.

No it doesn't. I work third shift so sleep during the day and have the same problem. I just sealed the edges with duct tape to block out all the light and it worked fine.

YES... privacy and blocks the sun too. I really like it and it is NOT cheap looking like some I have seen.

The screens are translucent -- so if you have bright light, it will diffuse the light but not completely block the sunlight. I think it should work as a good block to keep the strong sunlight from "sunbleaching" fabric etc.

Yes, it blocks out the light. However if your puppy is like mine and can pulls the cover in the kennel he will shred it to pieces in a matter of seconds. It is a very light fabric that they can rip up.

It let's some light through, but it is not see through. If you look at the pictures I posted of this in my living room you'll see that I have it blocking the large sliding glass doors in my living room. My apartment is right next to the street so if that window is open everyone can see me. The panels also block out the ability to see behind them .. you'd only see figures in silhouette.

Light will come through somewhat, but it is diffuse. This is more of a privacy screen, and light will also show over the top, especially if you have an overhead light.

Yes they do block out blue light very effectively. Really helps to use in evening to aid sleep.

Yes it does a pretty good job. I have this set up as a divider in a studio between my bed and large set of windows only covered by office metal blinds and even though the sun shines through in the morning this stops it from being that annoying.

It blocks about 20 of visible light, and blocks a whole lot of heat. The amount of heat reduction is makes it all worth it.. My couch is right in front of a all day daylight window and its the difference between being able to sit on it at noon now vs it being a stove top burner.

No, we don't find that it darkens the room. It lets the light through, but adds privacy.

It depends on your definition of "some". Mostly it block the view -- very well -- shapes can be seen but not detail and although the windows I covered are under a full awning, I have noticed no reduction in sunlight.
